It is a warm hug in the morning. It greets me in the morning with its aroma. It wakes me up and makes my brain alert. It is missed if I cannot find it. I am sure many of you can agree coffee has become a staple of the North American lifestyle. Can you imagine a whole week without coffee, the very thought makes me shudder. I like my coffee with 1 cream and 1/3 tsp of sugar. I love a fabulous mochaccino loaded with real whipped cream from Java Moose . Coffee is so essential it has achieved verb status in our society, you will frequently hear "Let's do coffee." in everyday life. Coffee is more than a beverage it is an activity; it even brings old friends together. What is your relationship with coffee or are you a tea lover, maybe you swing both ways? Where do you get your java fix? Psst ... I have been having a long-standing love affair with my Keurig

Knowing this is true makes my day even when the day is rough!

"What we say is our word, our word whether kept or not is a representative of their integrity, so we must keep our word and prove that we have integrity!"... Angela P One of my biggest pet peeves is when people waste their breath by saying they are going to do something and doing the other or not doing anything at all. When someone fails to keep their word it can lead to others not trusting them. I try my best to do everything I say I am going to do, that is why I say "no" when I know I can't do something. In today's society there are so many people that have no problem running their mouth with absolutely no sincerity. Have you ever heard someone say,"Let's do lunch!" or,"We must go for drinks sometime!" (whilst donning an artificial smile) when they have no intent on either? People need to think, "Am I going to do what I say I am going to do?"! Some people will use the feeble excuse,"... but I intended on doin...

We all encounter bad times in our lives and never know how to make it through those times. Recently while chatting with a friend I came to the conclusion of how we all can help ourselves through rough times. Anyone who has gone through a rough times knows we can tend to obsess about our tribulations and that doing so never helps especially when the tribulation is not one that we created. When problems are not likely to go away in the near future obsessing is not productive. We must treat ourselves like someone who deserves to be happy by ending the obsession. It is not necessary that we do lavish things to make us feel better since the simplest things can pick up one's mood (ie: going for a walk, renting a movie, buying a new book, dancing around the house, etc ..). The main point I am trying to make is we act towards ourselves the way we would with a friend that was encountering the same problem and needs cheering up! Why is it we will try to cheer others up but not ourselve...

Aspire to be Barbie ... the bitch has everything. If the shoe fits ... buy them in every color. Take life with a pinch of salt ... a wedge of lime, and a shot of tequila. In need of a support group ... cocktail hour with the girls! When life gets you down ... just put on your big girl panties and deal with it. Let your greatest fear be that there is no PMS .... and this is just your personality. I know I'm in my own little world ... but it's ok. They know me here. Lead me not into temptation ... I can find it myself. Don't get your knickers in a knot ... it solves nothing and makes you walk funny. When life gives you lemons ... turn them into lemonade then mix it with vodka. Remember wherever there is a good looking, sweet, single or married man ... there is some woman tired of his bullshit. Keep your chin up ... only the first 40 years of parenthood are the hardest.. If it has tires or testicles ...

Boycott Media sensationalists who prey on the addictions and unfortunate events in celebrities lives to up their ratings for money! These people and their families are on display like an old fashioned local freak show for us to judge and make fun of. This all is so barbaric and utterly disgusting! =

When I cannot get to the Feel Good Store I will choose from the many flavors at the local grocery store. I like my tea straight without milk unless it's  Stash's Vanilla Nut Creme Tea . Tea has so many benefits it detoxifies (green/white tea), tranquilizes (chamomile/lavender) and is a great form of  aromatherapy  (vanilla/cinnamon). Some teas are even gentle enough for children to consume! I especially love relaxing in the tub with a nice cup of tea by my side. What are your favorite teas? How has tea made your life better?
